It’s that time of year again!!! In January 2009 Satoshi Nakamoto mined the genesis block which launched the Bitcoin network. Join Bitcoin Atlanta as we mark the 17th anniversary of this moment on January 29th!
This ambitious experiment to create a truly free market currency available to all the world has made progress and experienced many setbacks in the past 17 years, but the experiment persists.
The genesis block was mined on January 3rd, 2009 but we usually wait a week or two for people to get over the holidays and new years to celebrate.
The celebration would not be complete without our awesome Bitcoin Atlanta BBQ and, of course, a cake! There will also be a carefully curated selection of FREE beer! Look forward to seeing you there. Feel free to bring your favorite beer selection though.

✨ At Bitcoin Atlanta we continue the discussion that started with Satoshi Nakamoto’s whitepaper on October 31, 2008. Through the lens of Satoshi’s whitepaper we not only continue to learn about bitcoin but also other emerging technologies, cryptographic currencies and blockchains that are doing the work to make Satoshi’s vision a reality.
